English Corner

[Conry]

I think that "English Corner" is good title for this topic, but if u have better ideas, please wrote them.
And remember - English only!

I hope that there's no errors

[Nyszka]

So we should start talk about something interesting Any ideas?

[Conry]

Err... Not yet. I thought that you'll come up with something

[wojtko_7]

Well, it's a cold day, isn't it?

[yoankaa ;)]

Yeah... but stop talking in such way!! We are Polish, not English people, who talks only about the weather!! But I have no ideas what to talk about

[Conry]

So... What are you doing in your free time? I'm asking, because it was subject of my last English exam We has to write at least 100 words about it

[yoankaa ;)]

In my free time?? I'm sleeping I've got so much work at school that I have no free time. I've got to write an essay for tuesday and i haven't even started yet...

[Conry]

if I were you, I would write it on Monday only - I'm always waiting for the last moment
but I didn't say that doing like this is good

[Jacky]

I got up at twenty past five last time, because I had to write a story about Jan Kochanowski's life Finally I got "5" It's strange, but real.

[Conry]

it sounds familiar

BTW
could you explain me when to use "a/an" and "the"? For example: why "the Moon" is ok, but "the Mars" is already wrong? I cant get it...

[Jacky]

I have the same problem. Can anybody help us?

[wojtko_7]

Well, you simply have to learn before which names you put 'the' or not. E.G Before names of rivers you have to put 'the' (The Nile) but before names of lakes you musn't do it. Of course when we're talking about word which is not any name you simply put 'the' when you're talking about something concrete or talking about something for the first time. But it doesn't work in all cases

[Conry]

Why you think he didn't do that? More faith

[wojtko_7]

Oh is something wrong with it? I wrote it quite fast and it's possible that there are some mistakes done.
